Spark will have the exterior dimensions of the matiz, we've seen enough pics of the interiors (center mounted console et al)... now all that remains to be seen is the performance (1L 4 valve engine) and the prices!! C'mon GM... don't disappoint me once again (U-va was such a letdown!!).

just saw a news flash on CNBC. Spark starting price at Rs 3 lakh. Really looks like GM have pulled the cat out of the hat with such a low price.

Also happened to meet an auto journo, a friend who was raving about the Spark. His take was the car is peppier than the Estilo/Wagon-R and Santro, high-speed stability is good, very good for point and shoot driving and ride and handling is one of the best in the segment. He didn't tell me the mileage figure, but did say, good enough to keep Maruti on their toes. Fit and finish too are of a higher order than the Marutis. Looks like GM have got their B-segment strategy spot on.
